Gray and Yellow Playroom: The Reveal

ByHayley
Long ago in blogland, this room was my old craft space, until we moved my craft room down to the basement.  

NOW, it is the kids’ upstairs playroom!!!  They have several areas in the house for toys, but this room is strictly for them and they LOVE it!

Grey/Gray and Yellow Playroom Reveal
(done on a MAJOR budget!)

The walls went from a light pink to a blue/grey
Paint color is by Sherwin Williams and named “Online”.  
We painted a thrift store dresser ($30!)
The yellow dresser is the perfect spot to store toys
To the right of the dresser is a little area for playing dress up.
We are in the process of purchasing some costumes to add there.

I have never met a kid that doesn’t love bean bag chairs!
Perfect for TV viewing
Speaking of TV’s, we can’t be the only people left with a VCR, right?  The kids love watching VHS tapes and the best part is that we buy them for under 50 cents a piece at the thrift store:)

And yes, I painted the artwork above the TV… when Ethan was a baby… totally sentimental value!!
To the right of the TV area is a closet.
I call it the “closet of shame”.  
Anyone remember that episode of Friends where people found out that Monica would pack her closets full of stuff in order to make her house look clean?
That might be what I do too.
Moving on.
The other side of the room has their table and chairs with access to a magnet board and of course their felt board that I made
(link to the felt board series HERE)

I love their artwork above the table.  
I had each kid “paint” when they were almost a year old. 
So cute

 I made the curtains and I am loving the extra pop of yellow.

So, there you have it!  Our upstairs playroom.

Glad I got pictures because it will probably never look this clean again.  Thank goodness for closets 🙂
